What is a Wi-Fi connection?

Many environments, such as corporate offices, coffee shops, airports and

libraries, offer access to a Wi-Fi network, which is a wireless local area

network (WLAN). To access this WLAN, you connect your smartphone to

the WLAN through a Wi-Fi access point (also called a hotspot). When

you're within range of an accessible Wi-Fi network, you can use your

smartphone's Wi-Fi feature to connect to that network and access the

web.

Your smartphone supports Wi-Fi connectivity based on the 802.11

standard (802.11a, 802.11b, 802.11g, and 802.11n), with WPA, WPA2,

WEP and 802.1x authentication.

Why use a Wi-Fi connection?

A Wi-Fi connection is especially helpful in the following situations:

• You’re outside a coverage area and you want to access the web.

• Your wireless service provider's service plan incurs additional charges

for data services and you want to minimise data service charges by

using a Wi-Fi connection instead.

• You want to maintain a web connection while talking on the

smartphone.

• You're inside a coverage area, but outside your wireless service

provider's UMTS (3G or HSDPA) coverage area. (A Wi-Fi connection

may provide faster throughput than a GPRS or EDGE data connection.)

TIP Your HP Pre

is itself a Wi-Fi access point. Use your smartphone to connect

your laptop to the Internet. See HP mobile hotspot.
